Tuffley

About

Tuffley is a residential suburb situated southwest of Gloucester city centre, bounded by the A38 to the east and the Gloucester-Sharpness Canal to the west. Its housing is primarily a mix of interwar semis and post-war estates, with local shopping concentrated along Tuffley Avenue. The area includes several primary schools and community spaces, serving a settled population within this established part of the city.

The ward's western edge is defined by the canal towpath, a linear route for walking and cycling. A notable local feature is the presence of the former Tuffley Junction railway line, with some old embankments still visible in the landscape. Recreational areas include the King George V playing fields, while the larger Robinswood Hill country park lies just beyond its southern boundary.
